JUST ME...

Sometimes I wonder if I need the world,
When so much within me does each day unfurl,
Fighting both sides of my battles within,
Seeking my own advice when I don't know how to begin,
When my sights are shrouded the right path to myself I show,
I am my own best friend, my own greatest foe!

SMS Rhymes

When I'm feeling unsure about all that I believe inside,
When I've hurt all my foolish pride,
I wish she were here to chide,
And show me the way back to the bright side...

SMS Rhymes

1. I wonder how you teach me so much,
Some lessons that no one else can teach,
I wonder how depths in me you can touch,
Some places that even I can’t reach,
And of all, you are closest to me as such,
Walking beyond walls no one else can breach!

2. Stop this moment from running away,
It gives me just a fleeting glance,
There is so much to be done, so much that I need to say,
I don’t wanna leave anything to chance,
Can you hold it frozen for me in any way,
All I want is one more dance…


3. There are times when I truly feel alive,
When all my senses are active and my emotions thrive,
Anger and peace, angst and joy,
Moments when I smile, moments when I cry,
And a reason for all my emotions I find,
In a friendship that us together does bind,
And these days are spent in waitng,
For the next time that we will be meeting…

PLEASE HELP ME!!!

I wish to submit one poem. (Do you see the problem? JUST ONE POEM!) and when i tried reading them, i loved 'em all! (Being your own greatest fan sucks sometimes!) Now that's where I need your help guys. Please tell me your favourite amongst a few that i have shortlisted here-
1. Groping
2. Cancer
3. To have you for Life
4. At the end of college light
5. Once upon a time

SMS RHYMES

In my dreams, she drops by,
Sometimes to talk so much, sometimes to just say hi,
Aimlessly to nowhere we're walking,
It's a conversation but I dunno what we're talking,
Meeting her feels so good,
I'd never let go of this moment if I could,
My eyes then do open and i see my own ceiling,
And I wish so much, that I wasn't just dreaming!

1. If everything is well without anything significant on my part, how insignificant am I?

2. If it isn't well, it isn't the end...but what if it is well...is that the end???

To have You for Life!

I have always wondered what you would be like,

When we speak, what kinda conversation would we strike,

I have always wondered about that first impression I’ll make,

Worried that I might goof it all up with a big mistake,

I have always planned about what we might do together,

Someday maybe we’ll dance in the rains or cuddle up in chilly weather,

I have always thought that for you I will always do what is right,

That I would never be upset, bicker or pick a fight,

I have always dreamed of a perfect romance,

To plan everything and never leave much to chance,

But mum says nothing good happens after 2 a.m.,

And she is right, I might never be the same again,

Cause I know now that life isn’t about keeping everything in place,

That I can be upset and I don’t have to always make a straight face,

I wanna show how much for you I care,

So many emotions that with you I’ll share,

All those moments of happiness and fun,

I’ll treasure ‘em all, from rain and sun,

I want to give you excuses in so many ways,

And I don’t want you for years or months or weeks or days,

When you breathe your last, I wanna feel the strife,

I wanna know what it feels, to have you for life…

Poet for Sale!

So many emotions, so many thoughts,
Sometimes they flow and sometimes not,
So many battles that within me are fought,
Lessons that I learn, in ways that can never be taught!


So many a smile, so many a sigh,
Sometimes that I wanna give up and cry,
So many failures and yet always another try,
Falling down hard and learning to fly!


So many truths, so many lies,
Sometimes that there isn’t anyone to hear my cries,
So many lows and so many highs,
Drowning in depths only to be rescued by those eyes!


So many ideas, so many views,
Sometimes that I can’t distinguish the hues,
So many grays and so many blues,
Scratching I fight to loosen the screws!


So many a footprint, so many a trail,
Sometimes in my youth that I’ve been feeling frail,
So many contradicting emotions...so many that to put in words I now fail,
Needing a savior, I put this poet up for sale!!!



P.S. Just for the record...18 days since i put this up and no takers!!! Well as they say, "If no one claims in 30 days, finders keepers!" (so i guess i get to keep myself! hehe...)

सभी बातें कानों से नहीं सुनी जातीं, आँखें बंद कर के कोशिश करो, सन्नाटा भी सुनाई देगा!


Translated:
"You don't need your ears to listen to everything, close your eyes and concentrate, you'll hear the silence!"

It obviously doesn't sound too great in English which is the reason I hadn't put it up earlier...

SMS RHYMES

I can't always find a paper to pen down my rhymes so often they are typed on my phone...there are a lot of them that I keep writing for my friends, felt like putting up a few select ones here...

1.>

Suddenly powerless, suddenly prone,

Suddenly I doubt all I have known,

Suddenly I can’t find my strength anymore,

Suddenly emptiness is knocking at my door,

Suddenly now I feel so weak,

Suddenly all my courage, is running down my cheek…

2.>

Years that her I have known,

With each passing day, closer we have grown,

And yet somedays, a stranger in her I see,

The same way that she can even in me,

But the best part of what we share,

Is in knowing how much for each other we will always care…

3.>

Seen you fight your battles all alone,

Smiling you take every blow that is thrown,

Never a flinch, never a sigh,

Never have they seen your head not held high,

But you can’t lie to me and you can’t hide,

Around me you can’t put up a façade of pride,

Cause on my shoulder I have seen you weak,

I’ve seen all your courage run down your cheek…
